Sides and front elevations are done!

Well in just 11 days, the brick layers and stone masons are done and we are totally thrilled with how it looks. We are in the process of designing the 'keystone' with 149 engraved for just over the archway and then all will be complete on the outside. Next will be concrete for the basement and garage, more electronics wiring, our stairs being delivered and installed, insulation and drywall. Stay tuned!

Bricking has started!

With the rough in for plumbing and electrical done, the brick work has started and in just two days, the rear elevation is done! We expect to be done all brick and stone in 2-3 weeks and then onto the finishing inside.

Shingles on as we move inside ...

The roofers have done all they can until the brick and stone are done so the guys have moved inside. This week our geo venting 'rough-in' was finished, the plumber is doing the rough-ins, the concrete for the porch and side walk-way is being poured and we did our electrical design. Interesting that the sun tunnels we are installing in the closets are no more than a flimsy foil coil - why didn't I think of that!

Windows are in!

Our windows arrrived on Tuesday and in one day, they were in! We are thrilled with them and look forward to the next step of roofing, bricking and the inside stuff beginning.

Framing is complete!

Our new home stands complete with the framers finishing on the long weekend. The windows were delivered today and will be installed tomorrow ... stay tuned...

Gosh - our framers are fast!

In less than half a day, we now have a front porch!  They should finish this week on the rough framing and be back in a couple to complete the job!

So much has happened!

Since our trusses being delivered, the roof frame is up, the plywood is down and just yesterday they completed the dormers over Ella and Kyle's room. Our windows come on Friday. Next week:  the sani & plumbing rough-ins, our geo heating and cooling rough-ins, concrete pouring for walkout and front porch and roofing - we are rolling!
